Surrender vote

I've been in a few games today of which went very much down hill. In true spirit of league it gets to the point where you personally don't want to play anymore because of how fed the enemy is/ it's no longer fun- you do a surrender vote. But of course, there is always those two people who are always like no, lets not surrender even when you explain to them that the game is no longer fun because you're literally dying after 2 seconds of going outside of your spawn. I honestly think that there should be a cap on how many times you choose surrender. My last game me and my friends choose it seven times and of course each time they'd say no. Needless to say we lost and it wasn't fun. I think that after three failed surrender votes the next surrender vote should automatically surrender. No votes. Because lets be honest, if you want to surrender that badly, something has to be going terribly wrong in the game. Yes I'm whining about this, because it's annoying.

I feel like after 3 surrender votes, you just shouldn't be able to surrender. It's annoying to have the surrender vote thing keep popping up when it's clear it's not going to pass (regardless of which vote you feel is the 'right' one). Not to mention 'forced' surrenders as you propose would lead to the worst kind of trolling where perfectly winnable games would be spoiled by 1 person spam surrender voting, even if the team was winning.

Also, I might be inclined to suggest that if enough time has passed since the first surrender vote that you got to a 3rd surrender, it's pretty clear not surrendering was the right call anyway. If the opposing team isn't capable of ending despite being fed, then there's a reasonable chance of getting to late game where everyone is full build and the initial fed-ness doesn't matter, not to mention teams that don't know how to end are the same kind of teams prone to throwing games over poor baron calls and/or carries trying to 1v5.

Honestly, as long as it's left out of ranked, I wouldn't really oppose this. The only issue I have with surrenders is in ranked, where you should be playing to win, even if it's unlikely.

Although I kind of agree, I don't think Riot would implement this.

Season 6 is "One fukup, you're dead."

You need to be able to ff at 15 instead of 20. Riot you made minions spawn earlier, games end earlier, and teamfights earlier. Make ff earlier?

Rito: SRY AT RIOT WEEE TINK 15 MINUTES IS TOOO ERLY TO CALL SERUNDA SO WET TIL 20

that would allow a player to force the surrender vote on players at 30 minutes because of whatever reason they felt like, that is more troll than wanting to play the game lol

Simply remove surrender from the game! I never vote surrender... This game is about patience, strategy, and team work. Forfeiting allows people to play recklessly and not care, because they can just ruin the next game. Learn to hold ground and fight back when the odds are not in your favor!

Besides the comeback is real! We were down 30 kills in this game, fought back and made plays with teamwork and timing. http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2086911493/221300757?tab=overview We won, down 17 kills. It does happen, and is more rewarding than a snowballing win.

OP is clearly a feeder.

Sorry guys, in my annoyance I neglected to add that the three surrender votes only would work if they failed 3 to 2. That way it can stop one person spam surrendering.
